Mint Julep, Anyone! Yummy!!
My latest 'invention' is what I call the 'Atkin's Mint Julep". I found these little bottles in a six pack called "Fruit 2 O" (a play on H20, I gather). The sweetener used is Splenda. Personally, I'm not crazy about the taste of Splenda, but at least it's not sugar and therefore consumable.
To mask the taste of the Splenda, I add a good squirt of my handy dandy lemon juice, and then add fress mint leaves and lots of ice. Yum!! It has really helped my sugar cravings in the evenings.
A great, thirst quenching summer drink too, and I appear to be developing a Southern drawl, yawl.....LOL!
Enjoy!
